Need a good picture of a stock LT1 combustion chamber Pulled the heads and found some interesting grinding in the combustion chambers. Can someone please point me to a good clear picture of what they looked like before the butchery?
This is the engine that ate the cam.
Found scratches in some of the cylinders. I'm going to clean the carbon off the top and pull the pistons today if I have time. Any info on the max piston to wall clearance I can run with stock pistons? I'd like to hone it and stick it back together with new rings and bearings. So far the crank looks good. Doesn't look like much metal got through the filter.
Also, the rear four cylinders appear to be running richer than the front four. This has to be telling me something?
